Questions
When is Diwali 2026 in the Canada?
Sunday, November 8, 2026, the same day as in India. The lakshmi puja time is different in each city; see the table.
Why is the time different in each city?
The window is fixed by the local sunset (Pradosh kaal is the hour or so after sunset), and sunset differs by city and time zone. Times here come from each city's own NOAA sunset and the Moon's position (Astronomy Engine, Lahiri ayanamsa).
How are these times calculated?
Classical Drik Ganita rules, cross-checked against leading published panchangams. Confirm family customs with your priest.
